InvenTree uses "EasyMDE" (https://github.com/Ionaru/easy-markdown-editor) for displaying markdown text in various places (e.g. for the various "notes" fields associated with various models).

Note: This malicious data must be first uploaded to the database by an authorized user, so the risk here is limited to trusted users
